We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Can you wear red without washing out? if not, then no. That's my winter test. My fall test is the ability to wear orange without looking outrageous. I have no test for spring or summers.
My mother used to do color testing. Little gatherings. Tupperware parties for the '80s, I guess. Anyway, the first test was warm/cool (which looks better, gold or silver?). Warm = autumn or spring. Cool = winter or summer. Deep jewel tones like a rich red, deep blue, dark green, etc. = winter. Deep fall tones like oranges, bright yellows, dark lime green, etc. = autumn. Pastel or pale (but blue-toned) colors like light pinks, light blues, mint greens, violets, etc. = summer. Pale autumn colors like peaches, lime greens, light orangey yellows, etc. = spring.
This is the useless knowledge my mother's brief foray into makeovers has left me with.

I always mix animal fats (schmaltz, bacon fat), with other fats like canola or peanut oil. Lets you fry at a highter temp, but still adds flavor.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Did you know that underneath their clothing the entire population of the world is walking around completely naked?
Kristin, I would just like to assure you that under my clothing I do not have the entire population of the world walking around completely naked.

Oooh, that's a good idea re: the chicken fat.
Jeremy Clarkson is texting Kristin Scott Thomas about whether the Peugeot is actually cool. I am still surprised at how popular this car show is in Blighty.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

My mother imparted the same useless knowledge on me during her brief stint selling Amway which, suprisingly, included cosmetics.

Heh. Blame Sam the Eagle for the poor punctuation. I'm just quoting!

Ack! Did she have all the fabric swatches and stuff?? I remember her pulling me into rooms to show what a Spring looks like because they're not as common as other seasons.

Ack! Did she have all the fabric swatches and stuff??SO TOTALLY YES! Oh that's hysterical. My mom sold Amway forever. She still sells through their online Quixtar brand. Have to say that I still use their cleaning products--they're actually really good and organic and shit. But I'm dying over the fact that we both suffered through color-testing. She used to show me off as a blonde-haired winter (also rare). I'm less able to get away with the winter colors now, alas.
